  • I would love to do a payment a day but when there is a chance that I may be unemployed for god knows how long come 6 months time, I'm really worried. Got to save my left over money in the bank each month

    I'm reading this thread wishing I could do it too.:rolleyes:

    Maybe your payment a day could be into a savings account? Then if you find that *fingers crossed* you get a job and don't need the savings you could pay it off a CC in one lump sum? :confused:

    Yeah, that's what I am going to do. I will be putting it into a savings account. It's ridiculous that I'm so qualified yet keep failing interview. It's getting me down.

    I'm starting to hate the interviewers.

  • Just a question, if anyone can answer, please? Can I count my monthly TV Licence payment as a pad ~ or is that stretching it a bit? I suppose it doesn't count, really, as it's not a debt as such? :confused:

    Hi all

    Have n't had a chance to post this week, hubbys been on the internet with work type things all week. any way I have been making the 2.50 per day payments (instead of buying lunch out) and got a bargain today when i took back a christmas pressie i had bought 2 weeks ago and bought a replacement in a different colour for £20.00 cheaper in the sale, didnt have the cheek to just get the exact same thing back as the girl on the cash desk hadnt changed. any way have paid that off my cc too leaving a grand total of £111.01 to clear by dec 31st to reach my target.

    Getting used to making lunch now and have also pursuaded boss he would like a toaster and microwave in the office so from next week will not just have to rely on sandwiches, home made soup could be the dish of the day expecially in the very cold weather.

    Pink twirl, have you contacted the interviewer to find out why you are not getting the jobs - feed back may help for future interviews, Most firms are happy to go through it with you.

    bye
